Back to school day

Well here I am again after unintentionally taking the summer off. I'm not making any promises after reneging on the last one but I will do my best to write here as often as I can.
I love this time of the year, I'm not sure why. I loved school and learning so maybe that is it and when it is still warm but with a little autumnal nip in the air it stirs something in me and its time to start something new or just to be creative again. 
I have completed a few things over the summer and have also moved into my daughters room as my craft room. She is now in her brothers old room, so we had a flurry of painting and decorating and moving of stuff ( All mine being dumped into her room so that she could move as quickly as possible). Everything is on top of each other and I reckon I could fill two rooms. I cannot show any pictures yet as I have the moving in photos but not the sorted out ones yet.
Yvonne Here now has a fantastic space in her attic. I have an 8ft x 11ft room so it will take me some time to get it sorted.
I do have a new desk and chair and lots of bits and pieces that my family put together for me as a present for a big birthday I celebrated in July. It was a total surprise and is very much appreciated.
So after all that here are a few pics of cards that I made over the summer. I won't put them all up now just a few to show you what I've been up to.
Hugs,
Kay

  5. Happy belated birthday, Kay! You kept that one quiet! Look forward to seeing pics of the room when you are organised! And of course I look forward to seeing you cards regularly! I had to look at the '100 years together' twice! Very clever ;)
